Pieter Brueghel (also Bruegel or Breughel)[lower-alpha 1] the Younger (/ˈbrɔɪɡəl/,[2][3] also US: /ˈbruːɡəl/;[4][5] Dutch: [ˈpitər ˈbrøːɣəl] ⓘ; between 23 May and 10 October 1564 – 1637/38) was a Flemish painter known for numerous copies after his father Pieter Bruegel the Elder's work, as well as original compositions and Bruegelian pastiches. The large output of his studio (some 1,400 pictures exist with plausible links to Brueghel and his shop[6]), which produced for the local and export market, contributed to the international spread of his father's imagery.
Traditionally Pieter Brueghel the Younger has been nicknamed "de helse Brueghel" or "Hellish Brueghel" because it was believed he was the author of several paintings with fantastic depictions of fire and grotesque imagery. These paintings have now been attributed to his brother Jan Brueghel the Elder.[7][8]
